That's usually the fastest, anyway. What I normally do is leave a kernel laying around somewhere, and a parmfile that points to my DASD volumes. Then when I IPL from the reader, I mount the DASD volumes, and chroot to the mount point. This gives me all the tools I normally use, and I can start the network if needed, etc.

Can't login as root, the wonderful security folks are testing CA_ACF2 on this guest and local accounts are not working. I guess I could boot from the install image and go to rescue mode. I must say though not having the ability to execute the equal of linux 1 from the syslinux prompt is not cool.
